What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Brimpsfield Castle as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Brimpsfield Castle was built in the 12th century by the de Berkeley family, a prominent noble lineage in the region. It is remembered for its strategic importance during the Norman period and its association with the suppression of the 1215 revolt against King John.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
